Conclusion: Overall this game offers everything that an RPG fan could want - decent storyline, amazingly rich and powerful graphics, and literally hours of gameplay. Yet again Sega have shown that they know how to make earth shattering games, and this is a must buy for every Dreamcast owner.

Summary: If made to answer with a gun held to my head, I would say that in terms of quantifiable measurables, Skies of Arcadia is a better overall game than Grandia II. It has a better story, better characters, and the flaws in the battle system are made up for by the fact that there’s more to do overall.
